Power Electronics Europe Magazine Issue 4 Oct/Nov 2025

https://sps.mesago.com/nuernberg/en.html SPS 2025 PREVIEW 25 Power Electronics Europe Issue 4 2025 Power Electronics Europe and supports role-based access control. The hardened design in accordance with IEC 62443-42 Security Level 2 (SL2) includes e.g. secure boot, signed firmware updates, traffic logging and MAC/IP/port filtering and supports key requirements from CRA Annex I Part I. The industrial IPS (Intrusion Prevention System) EDF-G1002-BP-Series combines Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) and virtual patching with up to 500Mbps and 45,000 packets/s for real-time protection in machine or plant networks. It strengthens network security through hardened access control, defence against known threats, and comprehensive logging for complete traceability, and helps machine builders implement key requirements from the CRA. Whether in passive detection mode or active prevention, the firewall increases the visibility of threats. The device works in transparent mode, so it can be integrated directly into the network topology without changing existing IP addresses. The management interface can be operated in a separate VLAN and thus enables the segmentation of access and monitoring without affecting production. The EDF-G1002-BP series is certified according to IEC 62443-4-2 SL2, EN 50121-4, NEMA TS2 and IECEx and is also suitable for use in railway, traffic and explosive environments. CRA Alignment over the Product Lifecycle In addition to secure-by-default devices that cover CRA Annex I Part I, Moxa also supports CRA Annex I Part II with an IEC 62443-4-1 aligned Secure Development Lifecycle (SDL). This includes systematic, portfolio-wide threat modelling, secure coding, and continuous testing. Moxa’s Product Security Incident Response Team (PSIRT) coordinates responsible vulnerability reporting in accordance with international standards. As an official CVE Numbering Authority (CNA), Moxa assigns CVE identifiers to its own products and consistently publishes entries for high traceability. Security advisories and SBOMs (Software Bill of Materials) ensure transparency. In addition, Moxa supports the fulfilment of CRA documentation requirements for third-party components and the implementation of secure OT networks in accordance with the IEC 62443 and NIS-2 frameworks with solutions for zoning and network segmentation, access control, auditability and longterm resilience. Transparency in the Network: Live Demo MXview One With a live demo of the Network Management Platform MXview One, visitors will experience realtime monitoring and diagnostics in industrial networks. The software automatically detects and visualises network and SNMP/IP devices in subnets. Administration and configuration are carried out centrally via the web browser. A dynamic topology view shows the connection and redundancy status at a glance: Comprehensive reports and notifications of events, detailed device information, complete visibility of redundant LAN connections and numerous other functions ensure end-to-end transparency at all times. www.moxa.com SPS 2025 (Hall 7, Booth 380) Advantech, a global leader in edge computing and intelligent systems, will be exhibiting at SPS 2025 under the theme “Edge Computing & WISE-Edge in Action”, the company will demonstrate in hall 7, booth 380 how its WISE-Edge platform can unify edge computing, AI, and implementation to enable intelligent, real-time operations in a wide variety of industrial sectors. “SPS is a key event for Advantech” says Jash Bansidhar, AVP of Industrial Automation Sector, Advantech Europe. “It offers an ideal platform to showcase our innovation in edge computing, AI and industrial IoT.” Bringing together decision-makers, engineers, and system integrators, SPS helps Advantech to demonstrate real-world solutions, and to strengthen partnerships within its growing ecosystem, which includes leading technology partners such as NVIDIA, Intel, AWS and Qualcomm. According to Bansidhar, today’s customers are looking for more than just technology. “They want us to understand their pain points – and their growth areas. It means moving from being a supplier to becoming a strategic partner. And what makes Advantech unique is that we offer both the hardware and the software expertise to achieve true IT/OT convergence. We cover everything from data acquisition, communication, edge computing, certification and protocol conversion to edge computing and IoT software frameworks, making us a strong enabler of digital transformation.” Visitors to the booth will have the opportunity to explore ten different application areas. These include: Edge AI for digital human interaction on a shop floor; Edge AI for both AMR solutions and the Jetson Thor Platform; Edge controller with Codesys for software-defined automation; how to make brownfield secure and ready for CRA; effortless traceability in smart manufacturing with vision intelligence; and more. During SPS, Advantech will also unveil the new AMAX IoT control platforms, a series of innovative solutions that combine PLC, HMI, and IoT functions into a single software-defined platform, simplifying traditional system integration while ensuring deterministic real-time performance for precision automation applications. Visitors will have the opportunity to discuss specific applications and use cases with Advantech’s teams of technical specialists, industry specialists, and product specialists, led by Anis Aroua, Alicja Strzemieczna and Marco Zampolli respectively. As in previous years, participants are also warmly invited to join Advantech’s traditional wine tasting session at the booth on Wednesday, 26 November, from 3 p.m. onwards. The event will feature local Franconian wines from Weinbau Peter Schmidt of Nuremberg. https://www.advantech.com/en Advantech at SPS 2025: intelligent and connected ecosystems that drive real-time insights and innovation
